1. About.com
Franny Syufy, About.com's guide to cats, rates Natural Balance as the top canned cat food based on testing with her cats. She names Natural Balance's Indoor Ultra Formula as her cats' favorite. (Note: ConsumerSearch is owned by About.com, but the two don't share an editorial affiliation.)
Review: Top Canned Cat Food, Franny Syufy
2. CatInfo.org
Dr. Lisa Pierson advocates a raw-meat diet for cats, and her recommendations reflect that she considers other foods inferior. She includes Natural Balance in her list of better canned foods with grains (but no corn, wheat or soy), but cautions that 19 percent of its calories come from carbohydrates, which she feels is too high.
Review: Quality Commercial Foods, Lisa A. Pierson, DVM
This site rates cat foods based on absence of undesirable ingredients such as wheat gluten, and the presence of desirable ingredients such as meat. She isn't complimentary about Natural Balance and cites recalls of the company's other brands and unacceptable contents. The Ultra Formula isn't evaluated, though other varieties are.
Review: Natural Balance Cat Food -- Healthy Pet Foods?, Susan Peters
This cat-centric blog includes a fun-to-read page on cat nutrition and cat food. Natural Balance is among the premium cat foods recommended. However, the anonymous author states that they have switched to Wellness brand for their own cats.
Review: Hey, What's That in My Food Dish??, "Calsifer"
About 40 owner reviews are almost exclusively positive. Cats being what they are, however, one owner notes the cat will eat it fresh out of the can but will not touch any leftovers stored in the fridge.

6. Petco.com
Of the 40 owner reviews of Natural Balance Ultra Premium, almost all of them give it perfect scores. As with most owner reviews, the feedback focuses mostly on whether the cat likes the food rather than how good it is nutritionally.

7. Amazon.com
The approximately 15 owner reviews posted here are almost exclusively positive. The few low scores relate to feline fickleness, though one review mentions the food has an "ungodly smell."
